RACE 1(1,000M)

(6) CATWALK KING stayed on well to finish just over three lengths behind Querari Dancer on up the straight at Kenilworth on Nov 22. With natural improvement expected from this colt, he could have a serious winning chance in this field. Watch the first timers closely, especially (4) OMKHULU BOSS, (2) LE CONCIERGE and (1) VERCICAT.

RACE 2 (1,200M)

(1) FAST TRAIN had no luck in running from a bad draw at Kenilworth on Nov 8. Drops in trip and will be storming home.

(5) LOVING PRAGUE ran a great second behind Umzingeli Wenyathi on Nov 10. No doubt that he will have a big winning chance in this field on best form.

(7) RED WAVE stayed on well for third behind Navaseven last time. Hard trier who should be right there in the finish again.

(6) EUGENIUS is much better than his recent form. With blinkers on, watch for sharp improvement.

RACE 3 (1,200M)

(3) GIVE IT LALDY ran a terrific second to Foudre on debut at Kenilworth on Nov 19. With natural improvement, he has big say.

(1) FORT YUKON caught the eye late for second despite not having much luck in running last time.

(10) SUGAR DADDY was only beaten just over one length by Navaseven on debut. Watch.

(5) VOLEGOV ran a much better race when fourth to Foudre on Nov 19. He could sneak into the places, watch him closely.

RACE 4 (1,800M)
